I hate to sound humble-brag-gy, but I honestly never suffer from writer's block. If anything, I could probably do with having an occasional bout of it.

The fame, the money, the accolades... Honestly, the only good thing about being a writer is that every once in a while, someone tells you they like what you wrote. There really is no better feeling (except if your book took off in, say, Asia).

This will sound really tedious and naval-gazing, but write. That's my only advice. Okay; one other thing: write about what you love to write about. For years, I beat myself up that my "voice" was too shallow and too conversational and I would never be a "Great Writer", so why bother? But soon I realized it's just how I walk.

I have a blog on a very popular pop culture website, but since I write under an alias, I want to keep myself anonymous.

I write because I have to. Seriously. I have just a need to get stories out, and since I'm a bit of an introvert, writing is an easier way for me to do that.

I was sending out emails of my dog's latest mishaps, and people seemed to enjoy them. I looked around for other German Shepherd books to see if there were others experiencing the oddball things my girl was doing, but I didn't find any. So I decided to write my own.
